Stamford Hospital unveils its new look and offerings

BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

F

our-plus years and $450 million later, the new Stamford Hospital is ready for business.

Beginning on Sept.

23 and continuing through the weekend, about 120 patients will be moved in stages to the new facility on the same campus, starting with the least-critical cases and ending with ICU patients.

Once completed on Sept. 26, the new hospital will mark its official opening and its new address — 1 Hospital Plaza.

Although some landscaping and equipment-moving were still in evidence at the 640,000-square-foot building on Sept. 20, the hospital and staff were more than ready to go, said Liz Longmore, director of clinical operations, who has been coordinating all of Stamford’s different units throughout the project.

“We had this date in place for a very long time,” Longmore said, “and we came in on schedule.”

Timing is everything in health care and that will extend to the unveiling of Stamford’s new emergency room sign, currently covered to avoid patient, visitor and even staff confusion. The sign will be unveiled Sept. 26 more or less simultaneously with the old signs being covered and later removed.

The new hospital’s face is very much patient-oriented, Longmore said, in line with the Planetree philosophy, named for the nonprofit patient-centered care organization of hospitals and other health care organizations headquartered in Derby. The Planetree approach guides organizations in making patient-centered care the centerpiece of a cohesive strategy that accelerates quality improvement, drawing input from patients, long-term care residents, family members and health care professionals.

Stamford has been accredited as a Planetree Designated PatientCentered Hospital, Longmore said, making it one of only several in the country so designated.

The philosophy is most imme-

diately apparent in Stamford’s physical appearance, centered on earth tones, soft colors and wooden floors to make for a warmer environment, rather than the stereotypical hospital’s more sterile, white-and-chrome design, noted Michael Smeriglio, executive director of facilities management.

Locally commissioned or donated paintings make up about 40 percent of the facility’s artwork, he said.

Each patient floor is dedicated to a particular branch of medicine — oncology, cardiovascular and so on — with a large mural featuring a specific theme (a Stamford skyline on the ninth floor, a lighthouse on the 10th) at each floor’s elevator bank. That way, Longmore said, if a patient or visitor gets confused about which floor they’re looking for, they have another visual cue to rely upon.

“We’re the only hospital in the county with all private rooms,” Longmore said, with smokedglass doors and private bath»» STAMFORD HOSPITAL, page 34

PRIVATE JET OPERATOR FLEXJET LLC is set to open a fully renovated private terminal this fall at Westchester County Airport.

The new $3 million facility will include a 4,000-square-foot passenger lounge and 30,000

square feet of hangar space.

“The experience really starts when you get to the airport,” Matt Doyle, senior vice president of sales, said during the National Business Aviation Association’s Regional Forum at the airport. “Not necessarily when you get on the plane.”

Cleveland-based Flexjet’s

fractional ownership model allows travelers to pay for a certain amount of annual flight time on a private jet, including the latest addition to its fleet, the Embraer Legacy 450, which was on display at the Sept. 15 event.

ealth Quest, an operator of three hospitals in the Mid-Hudson Valley, has crossed the state border and added Sharon Hospital in Connecticut to its group.

The company announced on Sept. 15 that it would take over as sole operator of the 78-bed facility in Sharon, a Litchfield County town of about 3,000 people.

The hospital is about two miles from the Dutchess County border in New York.

The hospital, which became the state’s only for-profit hospital in 2002, provides emergency, orthopedics, cardiac and geriatric behavioral medicine, as well as obstetrics and general surgery services.

“This offers tremendous benefits to our patients,” said Peter Cordeau, CEO of Sharon Hospital, in a statement distributed by Health Quest. “They will now have seamless access to a full spectrum of services — from expert oncology and cardiology care to innovative neurology services and trained trauma surgeons.”

Sharon Hospital will be converted to a nonprofit hospital once Health Quest completes the acquisition, according to Health Quest spokesperson John Nelson.

Sharon Hospital is part of Essent Healthcare of Connecticut, an affiliate of Tennessee-based RCCH HealthCare Partners. RCHH Healthcare Partners was formed in May with the merger of RegionalCare Hospital Partners Inc. and Capella Healthcare Inc., both privately owned health care providers headquartered in Tennessee. Sharon Hospital was its lone operation in Connecticut and the Northeast.

Pending completion of a regulatory review by the state, the transaction is expected to be finalized in mid-2017.

Nelson said the financials of the deal could not be disclosed, as Health Quest is still preparing its certificate of need to Connecticut to take over the hospital’s operation.

The Foundation for Community Health, a nonprofit philanthropic organization based in Sharon, helped initiate talks between Health Quest and Essent.

The foundation will assist in the transition process as well, according to Health Quest.

“Sharon Hospital is a critical component of our local health care system and its future,” Nancy Heaton, CEO of the

Foundation for Community Health, said in a statement. “In getting to know Health Quest, the board and staff of the foundation have been continually impressed with their commitment to providing quality care and community-based services.”

ed a $47 million, three-floor addition to Northern Dutchess Hospital. Earlier in September, the nonprofit broke ground on a $466 million patient pavilion for Vassar Brothers Medical Center.

“Sharon Hospital shares a strong cultural fit and strategic vision with our system,” Health Quest President Robert Friedberg said. “Eastern Dutchess and western Connecticut residents will see improved quality through better coordination of care and improved access to the specialists within our excellent medical staff and an integrated electronic medical record system.”

Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, Northern Dutchess Hospital in Rhinebeck and Putnam Hospital Center in Carmel. The nonprofit hospital operator also includes 265 affiliated health care providers through the Health Quest Medical Practice physician group in Dutchess, Ulster and Putnam counties. Health Quest operates two urgent care locations and is affiliated with the Thompson House, a 100-bed skilled nursing facility on the Northern Dutchess Hospital campus, an accredited home care service and The Heart Center, a provider of cardiology services throughout the region.

Trading bonds for printing career

WESTCHESTER & FAIRFIELD COUNTY

BUSINESS JOURNALS

JON GRABER HEEDS DAD’S ADVICE

◀◀ Jon Graber at his SpeedPro Imaging studio.

BY ALEESIA FORNI

S

aforni@westfairinc.com

itting in the glass-walled office of his recently opened printing studio in a converted factory building on the west side of Mount Vernon, Jon Graber said that most people find the path his career has taken somewhat hard to believe.

“People look at me like, ‘Wait, what’d you do?’” Graber relays with a laugh. “And I’m, like, ‘Yup.’” That’s because for more than two decades, Graber sat behind a desk and stared at computer screens while working as a government bond trader. His first stint in the banking world began at Lehman Brothers in New York City in 1994, where he worked his way up from trading support to the trade desk.

After the better part of a decade with Lehman Brothers, Graber moved on to Greenwich Capital in 2003. During his time with the company, which rebranded itself as RBS Securities in 2009, headcounts continued to dwindle and new regulations made his job less enjoyable.

“There was no volatility in the market, a very low-interest rate period and I could tell I was starting to lose interest in what I was doing,” the New York City resident said.

“Things were getting computerized so you weren’t even dealing with people anymore.”

While Graber was becoming increasingly disinterested in his line of work, his father, Jay Graber, suggested it was time to make a change.

The elder Graber worked as an accountant before becoming a franchise owner with Dollar Rent A Car in the 1970s. In 1986, Jay co-founded Supreme Optical with a family member who had a technical background in the field. The Farmingdale-based company, now called Tri Supreme Optical LLC, runs a laboratory that distributes ophthalmic products.

“He was a great influence on me,” Graber said. “He went from someone who knew nothing about optical to being an expert in the field.”

“For years, he had been telling me, ‘You know, I think you should be looking for

FCBJ

your next thing in life. You need a change in your life,’” Graber recalled. “I was fighting him on it. I said, ‘No, no, no, I know what I’m doing.’”

But after years of surviving various cuts and downsizings with RBS, it was finally Graber’s turn.

“It happens,” he said with a shrug of his layoff from RBS in 2013. “I knew it was coming.”

From there, Graber took a job with The Bank of New York Mellon Corp., but after only a few short months with the company, a shift in BNY’s business plan led it to scrap the trading desk Graber worked on.

“After that, I said, ‘OK, I’ve got to do something else,” he said.

But unlike his father, entrepreneurship was never something Graber considered.

“I think it’s very important to know what you know and know what you don’t know,” he said. “I understood I was in the corporate world my whole life. A lot of things are done for you. I knew I didn’t know how to run a business.”

After conducting months of research that included consulting with a franchise broker and seeking guidance from his father, Graber decided to become a franchisee of SpeedPro Imaging, a Centennial, Colo.-based printing company that has more than 150 locations across the U.S. and Canada. The company specializes in a variety of large-format products, including wall murals, vehicle wraps and event and window graphics.

“I was, like, ‘Wow, I’ve spent my whole life playing with imaginary numbers’ and that was the thing that was getting old,” he said. “I wanted to do something. I wanted to make something. I wanted to really produce.”

Graber has invested around $200,000 in his business, including a $50,000 buy-in fee to SpeedPro. His Mount Vernon facility, which opened in June, is equipped with a six-foot-wide latex printer, a flat-bed printer that dries instantly, making the turn-around time much faster, and an eight-foot-wide UV ink printer that is able to print directly onto anything from wood to metal to glass.

But SpeedPro is not solely about printing. Graber said he also works with clients, mostly business-to-business, to come up WCBJ

with unique concepts and design ideas to make their company stand out.

“We don’t look at it like we’re sign makers per se,” he said. “We’re really kind of almost an ad agency.”

While he initially hoped to open his operations in New York City, sky-high rents forced Graber to widen his search to Westchester and Fairfield counties.

SpeedPro has other area franchises in Elmsford, New York City and Westwood, N.J., but those locations didn’t deter Graber from opening his business in Mount Vernon.

“We’re in a very densely populated area, so there are more than enough customers,” he said.

Graber said he tells customers, “you’re not just working with me, you’re working with 130 owners who have anywhere from one to 15 years of experience."

Graber’s SpeedPro is housed in a 4,000-square-foot facility inside the former Ward Leonard factory building at 31 South St. With exposed pipes and original brick, the loft-style building “almost feels like an ad agency.”

“I knew right away,” he said of the building. “I hadn’t even heard the price yet. I was, like, ‘This is it.’”

Taking a page from his father, Graber knew that with his limited experience in the field, it was important to bring on someone who had a stronger background in printing and imaging.

“I understood I needed help. It’s overwhelming to go from what I was doing to what I’m doing now,” he said. “You have to know your limits and what you need help with.”

He enlisted Jerel Fuentes, a production manager with extensive experience working with the hardware and software SpeedPro uses, to run the design and production.

Graber also aims to make sure his employees — he recently hired someone to focus on sales and marketing — are free to be decision-makers and feel as though they’re partners in the franchise.

“I know, coming from someone who’s been an employee all my life, what it feels like when someone empowers you, or when you’re just working,” Graber said.

Deal reached to keep Sikorsky in Connecticut through at least 2032 CONNECTICUT BUSINESSES WILL ALSO BENEFIT, WHILE COMPANY GETS TAX BREAKS

BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

G

ov. Dannel P. Malloy and defense titan Lockheed Martin have reached an agreement to retain and grow jobs at Lockheed subsidiary

Sikorsky Aircraft through 2032, keeping Sikorsky’s headquarters in Stratford and promising to increase investments in in-state suppliers.

Under the agreement, Sikorsky will build some 200 CH-53K King Stallion Helicopters in Connecticut for the U.S. Navy until at least 2032. Lockheed Martin

had been considering several states for production of the CH-53K. The pact, which needs state legislative approval via special session and the Teamsters in the coming weeks, requires Lockheed — which acquired Sikorsky from United Technologies Corp. last November — to retain and grow its full-time Connecticut employment to more than 8,000 by the end of 2030; nearly double its spending of $350 million per year with Connecticut suppliers throughout the state; and increase its capital spending for machinery and equipment by 22 percent.

In exchange, the state will provide financial incentives totaling up to $220 million over the term of the agreement in several ways. The company will earn grants of up to $8.57 million on an annual basis over the term of the agreement by meeting certain benchmarks, such as retaining at least the minimum level of each of the following categories: growing jobs; payroll spending; utilizing in-state suppliers; and deploying capital for machinery, equipment and other long term investments.

In addition, sales and use taxes will be exempted up to $5.7 million per year over the term of the agreement and, if Lockheed exceeds the target level employment by 100 to 550 jobs in any given year of the agreement, it will be eligible for a performance incentive grant of up to $1.9 million, for a total of up to $20 million.

The news comes at a particularly opportune time for Stratford, as Sikorsky announced in late August that it would be laying off 109 Connecticut workers.

“This is a significant deal with wide-reaching ramifications,” Malloy said. “It ensures that great manufacturing jobs — thousands of them — will remain in Connecticut, and that Sikorsky’s extraordinary record will continue to flourish for years and years to come right here at home. If we don’t do this deal, we risk losing thousands of good-paying jobs.

“This isn’t just about Sikorsky and our new relationship with Lockheed Martin — it’s also about the supply chain companies and their employees that will benefit from the CH53K being built by Sikorsky,” he continued. “These companies are in every corner of our state.”

“This deal represents a significant first step in the three-way partnership among Sikorsky, the state and Teamsters Local 1150,” Sikorsky President Dan Schultz said. “It is important for the company’s ability to meet our customer requirements, for our employment stability amid continuing and difficult financial pressures on our industry, and for our future. Assuming the state’s proposal is approved by the legislature and the union agreement is ratified, Sikorsky will be able to transition the CH-53K production work to Connecticut.”

The legislature must act by Oct. 7 in order for Lockheed Martin to meet U.S. Department of Defense production requirements. Malloy’s office said the administration will undertake intensive outreach to all members of the General Assembly to brief them on the agreement and plans to hold numerous meetings throughout the state to ensure any and all questions are answered prior to a legislative vote.

chased in 50-hour increments, the aircraft are owned, operated and maintained by Flexjet. In addition to fractional jet ownership and management, Flexjet also operates traditional charter service. Doyle said that about 60 percent of the company’s flights are for business purposes, while the remainder are for leisure.

Branded a Flexjet-Exclusive Private Terminal, the soon-to-open facility at the airport will offer conference rooms, private workspaces and onsite staff.

“Whether you’re departing or landing, you have your own private space,” Doyle said. “The whole focus is to really close that gap from fractional ownership to whole ownership and to make the entire experience, not just the time on the airplane, more like you’d experience if you owned it.”

About 17 percent of Flexjet’s business is out of the New York area, Doyle said, and Westchester County Airport is one of Flexjet’s five busiest for arrivals and departures among their 2,100 fractional owners.

“It’s a logical location to have a facility for our owners to go through,” he said.

It will be the second of several planned terminals, including one already operating in Naples, Florida, and another under development in Scottsdale, Arizona.

“They’re really our high-travel areas,” Doyle said. “They’re great spots for our owners, but it’s really great for our maintenance facilities as well. We have aircraft going through there all the time.”

Flexjet made the decision to move its maintenance operations from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey to Westchester’s Hangar F in February of 2015. Portions of the company’s moving costs were defrayed through $5.1 million in bond financing and tax incentives from the Westchester County Industrial Development Agency.

Flexjet’s location in Hangar F, formerly the home of International Paper’s flight department before it moved its corporate headquarters to Memphis, will become the East Coast maintenance facility for its fleet that includes Bombardier, Learjet, Embraer and Gulfstream jets. Depending on the size of the aircraft passing through, the newly renovated hangar will have the capacity to house 10 to 15 planes.

The new facility is expected to bring 28 jobs to Westchester, Doyle said, and that number could reach 40 employees by the end of the year. Positions will range from aircraft mechanics, parts personnel, pilots and staff for the passenger’s lounge.

State Assemblyman David Buchwald said during the regional forum that the aviation industry’s success in Westchester

is vital to the county’s overall economy.

“We’ve made sure that there are significant opportunities for (the airline) industry to expand here in New York and to in turn help many other companies that rely on their services,” he said, citing a 2015 law that exempts general aviation fuel and aircraft from state and local sales and use taxes.

According to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration’s enhanced traffic management system count database, there were 57,384 domestic business arrivals and departures at Westchester County Airport from April 2015 to March 2016, making it the second-busiest airport for corporate activity behind Teterboro, which logged 137,285 during that period.

“We’re very, very honored that we have big corporations and small businesses who utilize this airport for their business travel,” Westchester County Executive Robert

P. Astorino said during the conference. “It is a perfect example when the restaurants are full and when the hotel rooms are full

because everyone is here (at this forum). It means this is an important industry to the economy of this county.”

Electric car sales keep plugging along

Brian Fitzgibbon, a sales consultant at Bruce Bennett Nissan, demonstrates how to charge the popular Nissan Leaf at the Wilton dealership.

BY CHRIS BOSAK Hearst Connecticut Media Group

T

he obstacles keeping the masses from buying electric vehicles persist and the dream of putting 3.3 million zero-emission vehicles on the road by 2025 is looking like just that — a dream.

Advanced technology, new gamechanging models and continued state and federal incentives, however, may create a surge in sales of electric vehicles or EVs, according to area auto dealers. That would be music to the ears of the Drive Electric organization, which just wrapped up National Drive Electric Week.

“The Bolt will be a game-changer for electric cars,” Todd Ingersoll, president of Ingersoll Auto, said of the Chevrolet Bolt coming out later this year. “It’s priced under $30,000 and goes 238 miles on a single charge. It’s already less expensive and has a higher range than the new Tesla and that’s not coming out until next year.”

Road is part of the Ingersoll Auto group.

The Bolt, Chevy’s first all-electric vehicle, attempts to address the two main concerns consumers have with EVs: price and driving range. Even with rebates and incentives, EVs are priced higher than traditional gasoline-powered vehicles.

Most current EV models travel 80 to 120 miles on a charge.

“We’re still seeing people who are interested in electric cars, but for many people I think they are anticipating what’s next,” said Todd Bennett, owner of Bruce Bennett Nissan in Wilton. “There’s so much exciting stuff happening, people want to know what’s next.”

Nissan produces the all-electric Leaf. It is one of the most popular EVs, although Bennett said sales of the Leaf have dropped in recent years as other manufacturers introduced their own EV models.

In 2014, Connecticut joined seven other states and revealed plans to put a combined 3.3 million zero-emissions vehicles on the road by 2025. The vehicles include EVs as well as fuel cell vehicles powered by hydrogen. The other states are California, New York, Maryland, WCBJ

Massachusetts, Vermont, Rhode Island and Oregon.

Among other steps, the plan calls for increased marketing efforts and improved infrastructure, including increasing the number of charging stations, to support the zero-emission vehicles. Connecticut currently has about 250 electric car charging stations.

In 2011, President Barack Obama declared a similar goal of putting 1 million EVs on the road by 2015. Only about one-third of that goal was reached. In fact, it wasn’t until September 2015 that the millionth EV was sold globally.

According to the Electric Drive Transportation Association, as of last month there were just under 500,000 plug-in vehicles sold in the U.S., including plug-in hybrids that switch to an internal combustion engine when the range of the battery is reached.

In Connecticut, there are about 2,700 plug-in hybrids and 1,800 battery electric vehicles on the road as of June, according to the state’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection.

Sales of EVs continue to lag despite the many state and federal incentives offered. Federal tax credits of up to $7,500 are available, depending on the size of the car’s battery and how much the buyer owes in federal taxes.

The state, through the CHEAPR program, offers further rebates and incentives. Most EVs and plug-in hybrids bought in Connecticut are eligible for a $3,000 rebate in addition to other incentives such as a reduced registration fee.

Emission tests are also not necessary with a fully electric vehicle.

CHEAPR is a program of DEEP, Eversource, the Center for Sustainable Energy and the Connecticut Automotive Retailers Association. CHEAPR has issued nearly $2 million for 780 vehicles since it began.

“That’s been a huge driving factor in sales,” Trevor Cornelis of Ridgefield BMW said. “It helps out big time.”

Ridgefield BMW is one of the top-selling EV dealerships in the state. Cornelis said the BMW i3 will go 70 to 110 miles on a single charge. The 2017 model will increase the range significantly, he said.

“Sales are increasing more and more. Our customers are educated and informed about electric vehicles. A lot of people just don’t know about EVs and are basing their decisions on misinformation,” Cornelis said. “We expect electric vehicles to become more and more popular. It’s here for good, and the longer it’s here the more comfortable people will become with them.”

Other automakers are taking note as well and nearly every major brand has at least one EV. The Bolt will be Chevrolet’s first fully electric vehicle, but its plug-in hybrid Volt has done well for years. The Volt goes 53 miles on a charge before the internal combustion engine kicks in.

“We sell every Volt we can get our hands on,” Ingersoll said. “The Bolt will be completely sold out, too.”

Also later this year, Toyota will start selling its first plug-in hybrid, Prius Prime. Max Tananbaum of Greentree Toyota in Danbury said the tax incentives should drive some customers to the new model.

Connecticut’s refusal to allow Tesla to sell directly to consumers is another factor hurting EV sales in the state.

Connecticut residents wanting a Tesla must buy one in another state.

“We consider Connecticut to be a huge market, so we would like to see this changed,” Will Nicholas, Tesla’s government relations manager, said. “We hope there is a solution out there and will seek legislative resolution.”

Some auto dealers think low gas and oil prices have also stunted sales of EVs as consumers reverted to buying larger trucks and SUVs. “For some, cheap gas is a deterrent to buying an electric vehicle,” Ingersoll said. “For others, it’s a social statement to purchase one.”

Bennett agrees, “I don’t think the person buying a Leaf is buying it based on fuel prices. They are buying it based on environmental reasons and to have a maintenance-free car.”

Ingersoll and Bennett both see EVs as a step toward the next big evolution of the automobile. Ingersoll feels that hydrogen-powered fuel cell automobiles, whose emissions are only pure water, may be the direction the industry is headed.

“Once the supply is in place, you’ll see more of those vehicles,” he said.

Bennett said clean-powered vehicles will become commonplace in the near future, much the same way ABS brakes, traction control and air bags are now industry standard. He is also excited about the future of autonomous driving vehicles.

“Changes are coming in a big way and they’re coming fast,” Bennett said.

“We’re living in a cool time in terms of technology. We’re just scratching the tip of the iceberg.”

Teacher finds a business niche with nannies

BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

“I

am swamped right now,” said Lisa DeRienzo, stopping at a McDonald’s in Ossining for a morning meeting in waning August. She had just come from a home tutoring session nearby, summer lessons in math and language arts for seventh- and third-grade pupils.

“I have about 10 jobs to fill before I go on vacation,” she said. “This is the only interaction I’m having with people this week.”

On her iPad, the 32-year-old Valhalla resident called up the website of her business, ASmartNanny.com. Driven by economic necessity and chronic underemployment in her chosen profession, DeRienzo formed her nanny referral company in early 2013.

“I just placed my 175th nanny,” she said.

Yet she found that more than nannies were needed to meet the demand for child care among professional working couples, many of whom commute to Manhattan. Her business soon grew to include babysitting and tutoring services provided on referral to families in Westchester. Now demand for her carefully vetted, college-educated workers, most of them women, has extended to neighboring Putnam and Rockland counties and Connecticut’s Fairfield County.

“I’ve been getting tons of families from Greenwich,” she said.

“I find the most popular now is my babysitting service. That’s where I’ve been making all my money this summer.”

Raised in Westchester, DeRienzo majored in psychology as an undergraduate at Pace University and in 2009 received a master’s degree in childhood

Lisa DeRienzo displays the website of her child care referral company, ASmartNanny.com.

education from Mercy College with plans to become a teacher. But teaching jobs were scarce here, she found.

“I could not get a full-time job in Westchester and I did not want to work in New York City. I knew that I wanted to work with kids.” She took temporary jobs as a substitute teacher and teaching assistant in Westchester school districts.

“Unfortunately you can’t survive on that income,” DeRienzo said. “I knew that I wanted to work with kids but I also wanted to move out of my parents’ house.”

Searching on craigslist, she found a position in Chappaqua as a nanny for two school-age children of parents who both worked in New York City. Friends of hers who also had not landed teaching positions had turned to nanny gigs to pay their bills. “You have the perks of working with children and you’re making good money,” DeRienzo said.

“I loved the family that I was with,” she said. “All of a sudden, friends and former colleagues that were not happy in the teaching industry started asking me to ask around and see if I could find them jobs as well.”

“I thought, I could do this. I know so

many teachers. I grew up in Westchester.

I said, I bet I can find families that need nannies. There always has to be a demand for good child care. There always has to be a demand for nannies.”

In early 2013, DeRienzo registered her new business, ASmartNanny.com LLC with the IRS and the state Department of State. The novice entrepreneur had no attorney or accountant to advise her. “I did a lot of googling” for guidance through the process, she said.

“I think it was about $400” for her LLC filings, she said. “At the time I was starting with nothing, so it was like, ‘Oh no.’”

A Smart Nanny operates as a referral company rather than as a nanny agency.

Nanny-seeking families pay DeRienzo a one-time referral fee — $1,800 for a fulltime worker and $1,000 for a part-time nanny working 34 hours or less. Nannies are paid $20 an hour for caring for one or two children and $25 an hour for caring for three or more. Families pay nannies directly rather than through DeRienzo’s company.

After paying a $250 deposit, parents fill out a questionnaire “telling me all about the family,” DeRienzo said. She guarantees to send two nanny prospects.

If neither seems a good match to the clients, DeRienzo will refund their deposit.

“A lot of the girls that I have placed are still with the same family.”

DeRienzo said she does local and national background checks on prospective nannies, who range in age from 21 to 35. All must have a driver’s license and child care experience. DeRienzo initially required nannies to have college degrees, but has eased that requirement to refer prospects who have some college education.

“I get younger girls that way,” she said.

“I get the ones in their 20s who are still in school,” the majority of them enrolled as part-time students.

For her booming babysitting service, which she launched in 2014, DeRienzo adapted another business model — gym memberships. Families pay $100 for a one-month membership, $500 for a sixmonth membership and $1,000 for annual membership. Sitters, who also submit to background checks by DeRienzo and must provide three references, are paid at the same hourly rates as nannies.

For her tutor service, DeRienzo charges a $300 referral fee. Tutors, all of whom are New York state-certified teachers, set their own rates with clients.

To reach prospective clients and track their interests, “I belong to all the moms’ Facebook groups,” DeRienzo said. “I just joined Upper East Side Mommas because

I want to see what they talk about.”

DeRienzo pays to advertise her business on Facebook. “Facebook really has been a tool,” she said. “My Facebook page is where I get the most hits.” And students at colleges and universities in Westchester looking for babysitting work often “come from Facebook,” she said. “Their mothers see A Smart Nanny on Facebook and they tell their children to email me.”

As the owner of a new business, “You have to work so hard. It’s not easy to start a company,” she said. “This is the first year that I could have just survived on my income from Smart Nanny.”

Her business model might have inspired copycat entrepreneurs in Westchester. “Two women have largely copied my website” when starting their own babysitting businesses, DeRienzo said.

A Smart Nanny’s founder said she wants someday to franchise her business.

“My dream is I want to expand to the city — and I want to be in California so bad,” she said. “There’s so much competition in the city that I would need a lot of people to help me.”

For now, hers is a low-overhead, highly portable, one-woman business. “I use

my phone and my iPad and that’s it,” DeRienzo said. “I hardly use my desktop. I can run this from anywhere. When I have kids, I can still run this.”

As of this month, the businesswoman does have kids — though not her own.

Seven years after earning her master’s, DeRienzo has started a full-time job as a kindergarten teacher in a public school in Westchester. She said she has no plans to give up her growing nanny business.

“This is perfect,” she said of her new day job, “because I can do both.” With her teacher’s salary, “I can comfortably hire an assistant now.”

LeedMee takes on rating real estate agents

BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

A

lthough rating goods and services of nearly every stripe has become pretty much a given in today’s multimedia landscape, one sector has escaped such scrutiny: real estate agents.

Until two weeks ago, that is, when LeedMee officially launched.

“You go on Yelp and see every retailer rated and ranked and on Travelocity and Priceline you’ve got every hotel and airline,” said Jeff Dyment, LeedMee founder and managing partner. “Before you spend $5,000 on a trip you’re constantly looking at reviews. But for what’s the largest financial transaction in the lives of most people, they end up selecting an agent by word of mouth or a sign on the road.

I thought there had to be a better way to get a more reliable solution and a more pleasant experience.”

A longtime entrepreneur whose resume includes stints as founder/CEO of Vencast, the first online distribution business for funds and fund marketing, and as CEO of Fitmoo, an online social platform and marketplace for the fitness industry, the Fairfield resident threw himself into six months of researching and developing LeedMee.

The online service, currently available only in Fairfield County, provides home sellers with scorecards or comparative resumes for each of the 5,000-plus licensed agents statewide. Information is gathered from a number of different databases, organized and packaged into an easily digestible format to allow homeowners to select their agent and agency with unbiased data that includes each agent’s number of listings and demographic area of expertise, conversion rates, average sale price, average days on market, sales per square foot and sales/ listing prices.

“I probably ended up researching and analyzing around 62,000 transactions and 500,000 data points,” Dyment said.

“The goal is to provide potential home sellers something beyond superficial information to dig down and see who’s the best salesperson for a particular listing, using the best quantitative and qualitative research available.”

The process takes the guesswork out of the selection process and instead relies on LeedMee’s data, math and scorecards to increase the odds that the owner can sell their home faster, for more money and more efficiently with the right representation, according to Dyment. Once the seller is interviewed by the LeedMee team, he or she is usually paired with an agent within 48 hours.

Eschewing advertising and paid search services to rely – so far – on word of mouth, Dyment said he’s already working with 10 customers throughout Fairfield County, including in Fairfield, Greenwich, Westport and Wilton. LeedMee does not accept solicitations, financial or otherwise, from agents to improve their rankings, he said.

LeedMee makes money only upon completion of a transaction, taking a portion of the agent’s commission that is determined up front. The benefit for the home seller is obvious, he said, “Ideally they sell their home with a minimum of worry and at no cost to them,” while the agent “walks away with a client for life.”

So far LeedMee has been funded solely by Dyment, though he said he is actively searching other investment opportunities, either through other entrepreneurs, equity crowdfunding platforms like WeFunder, or some combination thereof. He recently met with Connecticut Innovations to discuss financial support from the state of Connecticut for the endeavor’s next phase.

Composed of three employees, including Dyment, LeedMee is looking to add 20 employees in Fairfield County. Once the company is firmly established in the county, Dyment said he plans to expand

it through the rest of the state and then begin exploring New York (including Manhattan, as well as Massachusetts and Florida.

As for the unusual spelling of the company’s moniker, Dyment said, “There’s really not much in a name on the internet.

Yahoo, Google, Amazon … they’re not really very descriptive of what those companies actually do.”

"But for what’s the largest financial transaction in the lives of most people, they end up selecting an agent by word of mouth or a sign on the road."

-Jeff Dyment “I wanted to come up with something memorable,” he added. “‘Lead Me’ was not an available URL, and it would have cost something like $20,000 to acquire it.

So I decided that inventing a word was as good as grabbing an existing word, and for $9 was able to register and claim the LeedMee domain.”

HUDSON VALLEY AND STATE LAG NATION IN JOBS

NEW YORK AND THE HUDSON Valley lost jobs in August and lagged well behind national job growth.

Statewide, there were 35,600 fewer nonfarm jobs, for a month-to-month decline of 0.4 percent. The Hudson Valley labor market declined by 9,100 jobs, or 0.9 percent, according to the New York Department of Labor.

Nationally, jobs grew by 224,000 or 0.2 percent.

Leisure and hospitality took the biggest hit in the region, losing 3,900 jobs or 3.9

percent. The government sector lost 2,500 jobs or 1.6 percent. Education and health services lost 1,200 jobs, or 0.6 percent.

Trade, transportation and utilities picked up 300 jobs, or 0.2 percent, and manufacturing was up by 100 jobs or 0.2 percent.

The state and local labor pictures look brighter on a yearly basis but still lag the national numbers.

The Hudson Valley has gained 13,700 nonfarm jobs from August 2015 to August 2016, or 1.5 percent. Statewide, jobs grew by 125,700 or 1.4 percent. Nationally, job growth is up by nearly 2.5 million jobs or 1.7 percent.

Yearly job growth statewide is concentrated in New York City and its suburbs, accounting for 95 percent of the jobs.

The unemployment rate ticked up a point in August, to 4.8 percent, but is below the 5 percent rate of a year ago.

National unemployment held steady at 4.9 percent and remained below the 5.1 percent rate of a year ago.

The job counts are based on a monthly payroll survey of 18,000 New York employers by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The monthly estimates are preliminary and could be revised as more data become available. The unemployment rate is based

CONN. JOBLESS RATE FALLS SLIGHTLY IN AUGUST

THE STATE RECORDED A NET gain of 300 jobs in August to attain a seasonally adjusted number of 1,690,800, according to the preliminary estimate of Connecticut’s total nonfarm employment from the business survey administered by the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics. July’s originally released job gain of 1,700 (0.1 percent) was revised down sharply to a loss of 800.

From August 2015 through last month, Connecticut employment grew by about 18,600 positions — 1.1 percent, or 1,550 jobs per month. The state’s unemployment rate fell for the second straight month from July’s 5.7 percent to 5.6 percent in August. U.S. unemployment in August was 4.9 percent.

Private sector employment fell by 0.1 percent to 1,500 jobs in August, but grew 1.1 percent by 16,200 jobs for the year.

Government employment rose by 0.8 percent to 241,100 for the month, and was up by 1 percent or 2,400 jobs for the year.

Education and health services added the most jobs in August — 2,000 jobs to total 329,900, for a 0.6 percent increase — with leisure and hospitality (1,100 to 155,200, for 0.7 percent) and information (300 to 33,600, or 0.9 percent) also showing gains.

Declines were recorded in the construction and mining (-1,700 jobs to total 56,500, for a 2.9 percent decrease), other services (-1,400 to 66,200, for -2.1 percent), professional and business services (-800 to 218,200, for -0.4 percent), financial activities (-600 to 132,800, for -0.4 percent), manufacturing (-300 to 160,000, for -0.2 percent) and trade transportation and utilities (-100 to 297,300, down less than one-tenth of one percent) sectors.

Meanwhile, Pete Gioia, economist at the Connecticut Business & Industry Association, called the report “bitterly disappointing.”

“On one hand, we get tremendous news like Pratt & Whitney’s announcement of up to 8,000 new Connecticut jobs over the next decade,” he said, referring to the East Hartford-based aerospace manufacturer that on Sept. 16 said it planned to hire 25,000 new workers worldwide over the next 10 years, with 8,000 of those new hires being in Connecticut.

“Yet just as we’re celebrating that, these numbers show that the state economy’s foundation needs to be fortified,” Gioia said.

Gioia, citing figures from DataCore Partners indicating that Massachusetts and Vermont lead New England with 270 percent and 162 percent respectively, said, “On balance, this is a report we wish we didn’t get.”

I

n his business memoir “Onward: How Starbucks Fought for Its Life Without Losing Its Soul,” Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz describes the role of merchants in unlocking a product’s “magic.” As he writes: “We take something ordinary and

infuse it with emotion and meaning and then we tell its story over and over and over again, often without saying a word.”

Schultz is also, in many ways, describing the process of creating the logos and iconography behind a brand: you take elements (colors, shapes, lettering) and

arrange them in a way that instantly conveys, without much, if any, explanation, the core of what you do and how you want your customer to feel.

Our first reaction to most things is visual; it is said that 80 percent of our brain is dedicated to recognizing visual stimulus. While a brand’s visual identity is not the brand in its entirety, it is nonetheless a vitally important building block in the brand’s identification and communication

BRANDING IS A CREATIVE PROCESS

It’s more than a logo. You have to dig deep to find the meaningful differentiators for your brand. Doing this correctly takes an investment of time, effort and money. It is an iterative process that gets fine-tuned until it takes on a life of its own. Through usage, it begins to transform and develop.

WHAT IS THE SUBSTANCE BEHIND THE BRAND?

Given the increasing sophistication of consumers, you can’t dazzle your audience with empty promises. Effectively conveying the brand without words hinges on one thing: authenticity, or finding the expression of the real you. But coming up with

the “soul” of the product is much easier said than done.

The logo offers emotion and meaning and a promise of what to expect. When designing a logo system, we endeavor to unlock your brand’s magic and its most fundamental value.

BRAND IS AN EXPERIENCE

A distinctive brand is a visual and behavioral style; it delivers a better way to see your world. It embraces the authentic expression of the culture and creates a lasting impression in the minds of its viewers.

The brand system is a complete personality with a voice and an attitude, along with a value proposition and the ability to deliver what the consumer expects. It presents a relationship that your audience can depend on and look forward to. It is consistent in all the right ways while also offering surprises and rewards, which makes it all the more fun and satisfying.

STEM education isn’t just for kids anymore

BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

T

he Digital Arts Experience, a provider of STEM-focused after-school and weekend classes in White Plains, will roll out an offering of courses for adults this fall.

Courses, which started Sept. 20, include DSLR photography, website building, programming with Python, 3-D printing, video editing and more.

Rob Kissner started the company in 2012, and he said at the time his goal was to work with adults right away. He previously worked in media production, managing recording studios. But he also did private computer training and consulting for adults and worked for Apple helping people understand their new Mac computers.

“My background in teaching was with adult learners, so that’s my passion,” Kissner said.

But without the needed staff size and budget to market to adults, the company shifted its focus solely to school-age children.

“Over the last two years we’ve gotten comfortable with our business with kids

have at least 20 adults enrolled for the first six weeks.

Kissner said the group will market the new offerings through its community partnerships, as well as through some more adult-focused programming. While the DAE offers meet-ups for the computer game Minecraft and birthday parties to get its name out to a younger audience, it will attempt to draw adults through events like a potential wine-and-design with Photoshop event, Kissner said.

“Just to build some culture around adults being here and not just kids,” Kissner said.

Tuition for the first round of six-week classes is $299 per course. The classes are geared more toward hobbyists than people looking to retrain for a career, Kissner said. But he didn’t rule out that the company could eventually add course offerings geared toward more advanced retraining.

He said he will use these initial classes as a litmus test for what the company can offer.

“There’s a lot of places for adults to go now to learn about technology,” Kissner said.

“What we’re trying to identify right now is how we fit in best with that. We have the capability of teaching professionals, people that are hobbyists and seniors that are just looking to learn to use their phones better.”

“I’m just interested to see where we can go,” he added.

and it’s doing well, so now we have the ability to put more time and effort into marketing classes toward adults,” he said.

The staff for The DAE, as it’s often referred to, has grown in two years from the initial three people to 18 part-time staff and four full-timers during the summer.

The company has grown on the strength of its programs aimed at providing instruction in computer programming, 3-D printing, animation, graphic design, photography and more to children age 6 and up.

The DAE has taught more than 1,000 students since launching two years ago, including partnerships with school districts such as Edgemont and Scarsdale and organizations such as The Children’s Village in Dobbs Ferry and the city of White Plains Youth Bureau.

In 2014, The DAE launched a mobile tech lab, dubbed the DAExpress, to offer after-school programs on location in Westchester and Fairfield counties.

The company leases an 8,000-squarefoot office on the first floor of 170 Hamilton Ave. in White Plains, part of the GHP Office Realty portfolio. The building features a recording studio, a room with four 3-D printers, small computer labs stocked with

Macs and a photo studio.

But Kissner said The DAE’s instructors, many of them recent college grads working as freelancers in various industries, are more often found in the field. They operate in schools, the DAExpress mobile lab and other locations away from the company’s headquarters.

With the space and resources for adult courses, the question became what subjects to offer and when to offer them.

Kissner said the company surveyed the parents of students who have gone through their programs to see what they would be interested in.

Adults, according to the survey, want to learn how to shoot better photos with the DSLR camera they spent big money on and build a personal website on Wordpress with a custom theme. They’re interested in programming and 3-D printing. They’re also more results-focused, while Kissner said the curriculum is more intensive for children.

“With adults, they want to learn what they need to know and nothing beyond that,” Kissner said. “So we’re taking the curriculum and focusing more on exactly what they need to know and not bogging it down with things they don’t.”

The DAE has offered private instruction to adults in the past, but this fall is its first with organized courses. The goal is to

Electric vehicles find natural home in Greenwich

she’s noticed more Teslas, so she’s working on making electric vehicles easier to own for Greenwich residents.

She made sure to include the capability to install a charging station in the garage of a home she renovated on Old Church Road. She said she plans to continue doing so in any future renovation projects.

“I see electric vehicles as a big trend here to stay,” she said.

Schoenberg plans to use one of Tesla’s other innovations in homebuilding, too.

She described a new innovation by SolarCity, recently acquired by Tesla, that makes residential solar panels a more via-

ble option.

“It would be really cool to have a roof that charges your house and runs your car,” Schoenberg said. “That’s about as green living as you can and this can be done.”

Both Tunney and Schoenberg said they hope Greenwich will continue to lead the cause for EVs. “Greenwich should be in the forefront of speaking about these things,” Schoenberg said.

reenwich native Nancy Tunney drove a “teeny” Toyota for years, but its small size made her nervous while navigating heavy traffic on

Interstate 95.

She switched to a Tesla four years ago.

Not for the sports car design or impressive speed, she said, but for its innovation and environmental statement.

Hers was one of the first Teslas she saw in town, but she’s noticed that number has since increased.

Tunney now lives in downtown Greenwich, where car watchers can usually spot a couple Teslas at any given time.

One of those making the rounds is a Model S shuttle for the Delamar Greenwich Harbor, the boutique luxury hotel. The Delamar partnered with Tesla beginning a few years ago, according to Cristina Kelleher, regional director of sales and marketing.

The hotel often hosts Tesla test drives, and by early October, it will use exclusively Teslas for shuttling guests around town.

The town represents a strong market for the high-end car company, evidenced by the Tesla educational gallery opening soon on Greenwich Avenue.

“Historically, Greenwich has been a community fostered by leaders,” said Will Nicholas, Tesla government relations manager. “So a lot of those folks see Tesla’s innovations and advantages as part of our future.”

Greenwich isn’t the only place sightings of electric vehicles, or EVs, are increasing.

Connecticut hosts about 2,700 plug-in

hybrids and 1,800 battery EVs, according to the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. Around 1,100 of those are Teslas, Nicholas said.

National and state initiatives to increase marketing and offer incentives to buy EVs are credited for some of those numbers.

Connecticut joined seven states in 2014 in a plan to put a combined 3.3 million zero-emissions vehicles, including electric and those powered by hydrogen, on the road by 2025.

This followed President Barack Obama’s announced goal for 1million EVs to fill roads by 2015. That goal was only half-realized.

Yet efforts to reach those benchmarks persist. Both the state and federal governments offer incentives to buy environmentally friendlier vehicles.

Car owners can take advantage of up to $7,500 in federal tax credits and the state provides rebates reaching as high as $3,000 for EVs bought in Connecticut, along with benefits like a reduced registration fee.

Nicholas pointed out that owning an EV in Connecticut has been made more viable by a network pushed by Tesla to place charging stations in highly traveled areas.

Tunny said she charges her Tesla overnight at home, but Greenwich’s seven stations along the Merritt Parkway are convenient, too.

Kelleher added that all of the Delamar’s covered parking spots, about 15 in all, include charging stations for customers’ EVs. Greenwich real estate broker and home renovator Sabine Schoenberg said

What every business owner should know about winding down a business was the topic of the BCW’s well-attended Fall Seasonal Soiree. Strategies for Wealth thought leader Vincent D’Addona, CLU, ChFC, AEP, RICP, CExP opened the evening with a very informative talk about the steps and timing necessary to create a successful succession or exit plan. He noted that failure to develop and implement an effective exit plan can result in severe consequences for owners, employees, and family members.

The September 7th event was held at Empire City Casino where members mingled and networked while enjoying cocktails and hors d’oeuvres at Alley 810, a high-end mixology lounge featuring two vintage bowling lanes.

Making the rounds to energize women during Women’s Equality Month, New York’s Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul recently visited the BCW’s headquarters in Rye Brook for a roundtable discussion with BCW President and CEO Marsha Gordon, BCW board members and a group of about 20 women whom Gordon referred to as the “Power Elite of Westchester.”

Hochul said that women still face an uphill battle in achieving equality. Some daunting data she shared: Despite women being 52 percent of the population, they represent only 26 percent of elected officials in the New York State Legislature, and in Washington they are actually losing ground with fewer women representatives than 10 years ago. In the private sector, only 4 percent of U.S. CEOs are women, she said.

A former Congresswoman from the Buffalo area, Hochul said the message is that when women succeed everyone does better, noting that companies with women in leadership are more profitable. ”We need men to understand how important it is, not just to have our voices heard, but the economic impact,” Hochul said. “When women are able to be paid the same as men, for example, that would be a $1.3 billion impact for New York’s economy.”

The lieutenant governor has been touring the state hosting similar roundtable discussions on the topic. She led a discussion in April at The College of New Rochelle that featured State Sen. Andrea Stewart-Cousins and CNR President Judith Huntington.

Pictured attending the August 30 event were: Seated, from left, Victoria Hochman of Thompson & Bender; BCW President and CEO Marsha Gordon; Lt. Governor Kathy Hochul; Jean Marie Connelly of BNY Mellon Wealth Management, and Wendy Wolner of Balancing Life’s Issues.

Three steps to grow your business with LinkedIn

A

re you missing out on LinkedIn? Most people are because they primarily view LinkedIn as a social network for getting a good job.

The logic is that if you already have a good job and don’t see yourself switching anytime soon, why even consider LinkedIn? If that’s your logic, then you are missing out on the social network that can change your life.

People are not just using LinkedIn to get a job. Some people use it to acquire more customers or get featured in bigtime media outlets. Many individuals have achieved these results using the social platform.

LinkedIn emphasizes building relationships. From a strong marketing perspective, every social network possesses a mixture of interaction and self-promotion. The interaction available on LinkedIn is legendary and if done right, you can get access to

virtually any opportunity imaginable.

GET SPECIFIC

What is your end goal? Are you after media exposure, more leads, customers, or something else? Once you know what you are after, get more specific. The difference between aspiring to get more customers this month and aspiring to get 10 customers this month is enormous. If you get an extra customer this month, you got more customers, but getting 10 customers this month adds that layer of specificity.

FIND THE PEOPLE WHO WILL HELP YOU

The type of communication on LinkedIn is very similar to a series of emails from one person to the other. While email is the best form of communication, the advantage with LinkedIn is that the social network makes it very easy to find people who will help you.

If you are looking to get featured in a media outlet, you can use LinkedIn’s

search engine to find the editors of that particular website or magazine. If you are looking for customers, you can build connections with people interested in your profession. You can find these people by going through your competitors’ LinkedIn audiences and connecting with the most promising prospects. Even building relationships with competitors and cross-promoting each other is another useful way of acquiring more customers.

If you are a local business, LinkedIn can and will still work for you because of its advanced search engine. You can find people based on their interests and location. If you wanted to connect with individuals who live in Westchester County, LinkedIn is the place to go.

BUILD HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS

This stage is the make-or-break part of the process. If you build a healthy relationship with the person you are trying to connect with, you will get the opportunity.

If the relationship goes south, you’ll have to start all over again with someone else.

Some helpful ways to build a healthy relationship are to know the person in advance — doing some research will

FCBJ

suffice — showing admiration, asking a quick question and being concise.

If you are trying to get a lead or customer, create a conversation based on what you are offering. Briefly introduce who you are, provide your credentials, and ask if the potential lead is interested in receiving a free offer in exchange for an email address or if the potential lead has any questions for you.

You never start a relationship by demanding what you want upfront. I’ve gotten many emails that were paragraphs long and read like this, “I’m awesome.

Here’s why. I see you offer this opportunity, and I want to take advantage of it. I’m waiting for you to say yes to me.” Except for bestselling authors, TEDx speakers and anyone of that nature, I almost always delete those types of messages. Getting what you want doesn’t create the relationship. Creating the relationship allows you to get what you want.

BUSINESS JOURNALS BRIEFLY

TIME INC. RENEWS LEASE FOR ITS SYNAPSE GROUP IN STAMFORD TIME INC. HAS RENEWED A long-term lease at 225 Highridge Road in Stamford for its magazine subscription marketer, Synapse Group Inc. The deal for 66,530 square feet of office space was announced by Savills Studley, which represented the global media company in negotiations. The landlord, RXR Realty, was represented by Gregory Frisoli, executive managing director at Newmark Grubb Knight Frank’s Stamford office, and in-house by Joel Cardillo.

Time officials considered several office space configurations both offsite and at 225 Highridge Road for its multichannel marketing group, Synapse, which employs more than 170, before signing an early renewal and restructuring its existing lease, said Savills Studley Executive Vice President Matthew Barlow. Barlow brokered the deal for the tenant with Howard Nottingham, executive managing director

at Savills Studley, and Craig Lemle, senior managing director at the commercial real estate services firm.

Barlow said Time Inc. “considered various scenarios to refresh the space to meet the company’s new workplace standards that provide a more collaborative, efficient workplace in line with the rest of the brand. It permits Time Inc. to customize and define its occupancy as it sees fit, from as large as its current 77,000 square feet down to 57,000 square feet.”

Savills Studley has advised Time Inc. on numerous transactions, including its 1.75-million-square-foot headquarters restructure at 1271 Avenue of the Americas in New York City and its most recent 700,000-square-foot relocation to Brookfield Place, formerly the World Financial Center, in Lower Manhattan.

In addition, Haakon Weyel, a Trumbull resident and UConn graduate with a degree in political science and certificate in nonprofit management, has joined HCC as an AmeriCorps VISTA representative serving with Connecticut College Compact and will develop a comprehensive financial literacy program at HCC. Weyel will also work with the CSIEL in creating additional community partnerships to enhance students’ educational and job-ready experience through internships.

The practice provides sports medicine services to professional sports teams and athletes in the tristate area. NAI Signature Group said the tenant in Stamford will provide athletes and non-athletes with off-season training and in-season consultation, injury rehabilitation and management.

Performance 20/20, a medical practice focused on improving and optimizing vision in athletic performance, leased 600 square feet at Twin Rinks. The specialty practice was started by Dr. Jennifer Stewart, an optometrist and partner at Norwalk Eye Care in Norwalk.

When Ben Prentiss, owner of Prentiss Hockey Performance, chose the vacant Twin Rinks location to expand his business, “It seemed to us at NAI Signature Group that we had the added opportunity to create a facility that would be greater than the sum of its parts and we set out to market the remaining space to symbiotic tenants,” Gillon said in the leasing announcement. “It’s rewarding to have contributed to a regional hockey training center of this magnitude and quality.”

Ellen Lynch

“I am proud to have taken the lead over the past three and a half years in moving the Food Bank for Westchester to a new level of professionalism and effectiveness,” Lynch said in an email. “We’ve accomplished so much in a very short period of time, and I can honestly say that I have never worked as hard or with as much passion and determination. It has been a joy and honor to do so.”

Lynch said in her position as CEO, it

is often hard to make time for connecting with co-workers, community partners and people with influence.

“I’m a promoter, a marketer and a relationship builder. I’ve been happy serving in those roles for the last 20 years of my career,” Lynch said. “I feel strongly that this is where I bring the most value and intend to focus my efforts going forward.”

Prior to joining the Food Bank in April 2013, Lynch served as the president and CEO of the Yonkers Industrial Development Agency and the senior vice president and managing director of Albert B. Ashforth, Inc. and EastRidge Properties.

Chairwoman of the board of directors Maria Bronzi has formed a search committee and will work over the next several months to find a new CEO. “It is an honor to do the work of providing a vehicle through which good intentions and generosity can be directed in a meaningful and impactful way,” Lynch said.

Native son revisits Westport – in a TV sitcom

BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

W

hat’s in a name? If it’s “The Second Fattest Housewife in Westport,” it’s an attention-catching but potentially alienating title for a sitcom. The show’s producers and network hope that changing it to “American Housewife” will broaden its appeal while maintaining its fondly familial yet sometimes snarky content and its setting in the Fairfield County town. “‘The Second Fattest Housewife in Westport’ was a great title,” said co-executive producer and Westport native Kenny Schwartz. “But after shooting the pilot, we

24

SEPTEMBER 26, 2016

FCBJ

took a long look at it and realized we had the making of a wonderful family show with broad appeal. We and the network came together and ultimately thought the original title was too limiting.”

“Wherever the show was to take place, it had to be a small affluent suburb so our main character, Katie Otto, would feel like a fish out of water,” Schwartz said.

“Our series creator, Sarah Dunn, lives in Garrison, New York. She picked Westport because it reminded her of her home town. Her thought was Garrison was too small of a town and quite frankly, nobody had really heard of it. People seem to recognize Westport more.”

The series, which debuts on ABC on Oct. 11, chronicles the life of an average wife and mother — played by Katy Mixon of “Mike & Molly” and “Eastbound & Down” — who tries to stand out among the housewives and their privileged children in her hometown of Westport. Other cast members include Diedrich Bader (“The Drew Carey Show,” “Veep”) and Meg Donnelly (“The Sound of Music Live!”).

Trivia mavens may be aware that Westport previously served as the setting for ’60s sitcom staple “Bewitched” and as the site of the country home shared by the Ricardos and Mertzes on “I Love Lucy,” as

WCBJ

well as being where part of the gory horror film favorite “The Last House on the Left” was filmed in 1972.

Though shot in Los Angeles, the new show hopes to make use of Westport not only in script references but with exteriors as well, Schwartz said. “We would love to shoot exteriors of all the great sights in Westport — Longshore, Compo Beach, The Cannons, downtown, Saugatuck, Town Hall, Main Street,” he said. “I would also love to shoot all the great old haunts of my youth — Dunville’s, Viva’s, the Black Duck, the Patio at Longshore. I also would love to shoot the exterior of Tavern on Main, which used to be called Chez Pierre, where I had my first job as a busboy.”

Indeed, Schwartz said he “just loved growing up in Westport. When I was growing up, Westport still had a smalltown vibe. Saturdays would consist of my family getting up early, having breakfast at Gold’s then off to downtown Main Street, where we would pop in to all the shops which were family-owned at the time. Then maybe a movie at the Fine Arts or maybe the Post Cinema. Afterwards, we’d grab a few subs from Fortuna’s and head to the beach to watch the sunset and play on the tire playground. That was a

perfect Westport summer day.”

A future in show business wasn’t on Schwartz’s radar at that time. “I always loved writing but I was a lazy student — ask any of my friends. I would try to get by in school by doing the bare minimum.

That is, until I met my sophomore English teacher, Frank Wiener,” who encouraged and pushed Schwartz in his writing.

Though his family has long since relocated to Southern California, Schwartz said he did come back to visit Westport a few years ago with his husband. “We stopped by my old house on Woody Lane which, I’m happy to say, is still standing...In the basement, the hand prints my mom, dad, my brother and I stuck in the wet cement to commemorate moving in back in 1972 were still there.”

Even with Westport eliminated from the series title, Schwartz said, he’s aware that some hometown folks may be viewing its arrival on the airwaves with trepidation.

“I’m hoping people are excited,” he said. “We are definitely playing up the stereotypes of life in an affluent town such as Westport, but it’s done with love. Nobody should take our ribbing too seriously. It’s a comedy and we’re hoping people will be able to laugh at themselves.”

ASK ANDI

BY ANDI GRAY

How do trainers train themselves to train?

I’m not a good trainer. I need to be mindful of that while ramping up a business development person — our next important hire.

And I need to use this opportunity to get better at training because it’s a critical skill to have.

THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Be a role model.

Have patience. Let your trainee make mistakes and learn from them. Let your passion show through. Don’t try to teach everything at once. Learn about the person you’re training. Back up your training with reference materials.

Think about how you come across.

How skilled and determined are you at what you’re teaching? Could someone else do the training and demonstrate more

passion or expertise? Show your trainees the right way to do it and don’t talk about shortcuts.

Avoid the temptation to rush. Explain what you’re going to do and what to expect. Then ask trainees to watch how you do it. Tell them to do it the same way.

Give trainees time to absorb and build muscle memory.

Next, let students test how things work. Once they can repeat accurately what you’ve shown them, let them try to do it on their own. Stick around to observe and discuss how things are going.

Avoid overload by working in small increments. Schedule multiple practice sessions. Resist the temptation to move on to something new until your pupils show some degree of competence at the last task.

Resist the temptation to rescue students from problems. Let them work it out. Be there to answer questions or offer

suggestions — but only if the students are open to advice. As long as they aren’t going to do permanent damage, let them make mistakes, discover what doesn’t work and figure out how to do things right on their own.

Be enthusiastic. Talk about what the company stands for and how that helps customers to succeed. Encourage best practices. Set the standards bar high.

Learning can be stressful, and people don’t do well in a 24/7, high-intensity environment. Break big projects or tasks into sections. Work on one section at a time.

Take breaks and let students build confidence by having them work on something they already know how to do.

Figure out how each student learns best. Some people absorb information by being told how to do things. Others need to read up on a subject. Still others like to practice with their hands to get the feel of how things should work. Some people are good at conceptualizing, others need to see an example. Adapt your teaching style to fit each student’s needs.

If people make mistakes or take longer than expected, show respect. Encourage them to try. Take them aside to discuss

problems one on one.

If trainees get stuck, ask if this task is a good fit for what is needed in order to succeed overall. If the answer is “yes,” keep on practicing. If the answer is “no,” consider assigning someone else.

Put together training manuals, checklists, pictograms and other tools to help. If you don’t already have training materials, ask trainees to keep notes and type them up.

Bank of America settles with New York customers over payoff paperwork delays

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

U

sually it’s the bank customers who are expected to fork over penalties and fees for various violations of account rules, but now a bank has to compensate a few thousand New Yorkers for paperwork wrongdoing.

U.S. District Court Judge Vincent Briccetti in White Plains approved a settlement in a class-action lawsuit for homeowners who paid off mortgages with Bank of America between July 2010 and November 2015. In many instances, the bank failed to file proof that the mortgages had been paid.

“This is no mere procedural peccadillo,” the original complaint, filed three years ago, said, and property owners were exposed to risk.

The law firm for the homeowners estimated the value of the settlement at $7.8 million.

The New York Real Property Law requires proof to be filed within 30 days when a mortgage is satisfied. If not, the

mortgage company is liable to the borrower for $500 after 30 days, $1,000 after 60 days and $1,500 after 90 days.

The paperwork is meant to ensure efficient transfer of property. Title companies, for example, rely on the proof to show that a property title is clear. A homeowner who has paid off a mortgage and then sells the property needs a clear title to complete a sale.

Typically, homeowners assume the bank has filed the paperwork, said Jeremiah Frei-Pearson, whose firm filed the lawsuit. It takes someone with an “eagle eye” to notice the discrepancy.

Milton Adler was such a person, he said.

Adler borrowed $280,749 from BNY Mortgage Co. in 2003 for a condominium in Somers. The mortgage was assigned to Bank of America in 2007.

Adler sold the condo in 2012 and used the proceeds to pay off the loan. The deed of sale was promptly recorded by the Westchester County Clerk but the satisfaction of mortgage was recorded 47 days after the loan was satisfied.

Dereck and Jacqueline Whittenburg

o

experienced an even longer delay. Dereck Whittenburg, as March Madness aficionados know, was the shooting guard on the 1983 North Carolina State basketball team who lofted an errant jumper that was dunked by teammate Lorenzo Charles to upset the University of Houston, 54-52, for the national championship. He coached Fordham men’s basketball for several years and is now associate athletic director at N.C. State.

The Whittenburgs borrowed $422,750 from Fleet National Bank in 2004 for a house in Pelham. Bank of America bought Fleet, and in 2012 the Whittenburgs sold the property and paid off the loan. Proof of the mortgage satisfaction was recorded 175 days later.

Adler and the Whittenburgs became the lead plaintiffs in a class-action lawsuit.

Adler died and his daughter and son, Denise Jaffe of Pleasantville and Daniel Adler of Manhattan, agreed to continue the lawsuit in his place.

Lawyers examined more than 5,000 pages of documents and thousands of mortgage filings from four counties during the discovery phase. They deposed 11 witnesses, including seven from Bank of America.

Last October, after an 11-hour mediation, the parties agreed in principle to settle the case to avoid further costs, delays and litigation.

Judge Briccetti formalized the settlement in July.

Bank of America, based in Charlotte, N.C., denied any wrongdoing. Property owners were eligible for settlements ranging from $180 to $780, depending on how long their mortgage satisfaction papers were delayed. Adler’s daughter and son and the Whittenburgs were awarded $5,000 each for their “time and effort for representing the class.”

Their law firm, Finkelstein, Blankinship, Frei-Pearson & Garber, LP, White Plains, was awarded $1.5 million plus $20,000 in expenses.

Settlement notices were sent to more than 16,000 Bank of America customers.

Fewer than 4,500 responded, and checks have been mailed to them in the past few weeks.

The bank was represented by Bryan Cave LLP, Manhattan. Attorney Christine Cesare did not respond to requests for comment.

For a bank that recorded $93 billion in revenue last year, the settlement is a mere blip. But Frei-Pearson hopes it sends a message.

“We hope it incentivizes them,” he said. “We’re very happy to have recovered money for the folks put at risk. And we hope Bank of America will be more careful in the future.”

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Iconic Reader’s Digest headquarters will house apartment dwellers

BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

S

tanding in what’s left of the corner office where DeWitt and Lila Wallace, the co-founders of Reader’s Digest, built a media empire starting in the 1930s, William Balter raved about one architectural detail in particular.

“These windows are huge,” said Balter, the president of Elmsford-based housing developer Wilder Balter Partners Inc. Eleven feet tall, they stretch nearly from floor to ceiling in the former office.

“Usually with a building like this, you’d rip the windows out and put in new ones,” he added. “But they’d be nothing like this.”

What to do with those windows and the rest of the features of the former Reader’s Digest headquarters building at Chappaqua Crossing is now a decision Balter gets to make. Earlier this month, his company was tapped by the property’s owners to convert the 77-year-old building, the iconic centerpiece of the former Reader’s Digest campus, into 64 apartments.

Called the Apartments at Chappaqua Crossing, the $21 million project was designed by Philadelphia-based architects L & M Design LLC. it will create a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Of those, 28 will be affordable housing units, 26 priced at market rate and 10 will be workforce housing. The four-story, 95,000-square-foot building will include two courtyards, a kitchen, clubroom, fitness room, library, playground and terrace space, plus 94 parking spaces.

Wilder Balter was selected to adapt the building by Summit/Greenfield Partners, a joint venture of two Fairfield County real estate companies that in 2004 purchased the 116-acre Reader’s Digest campus for $59 million. The final plans for the Chappaqua Crossing campus also include 500,000 square feet of office space, 120,000 square feet of retail, including a Whole Foods grocery and Life Time Fitness center, and 91

townhouses.

Reader’s Digest, which has rebranded as Trusted Media Brands Inc. and is based in Manhattan, moved its last employees off the site in 2009.

The Georgian-style headquarters Wilder Balter is tasked with adapting is the oldest and most recognizable part of the campus, especially for its distinctive cupola with four Pegasus statues.

On a September tour of the building shortly after construction began, Balter led a trip up narrow, dark winding stairs to the cupola, which offers panoramic views of the entire campus and the Saw Mill River Valley in the distance.

The historic cupola isn’t going anywhere. But Balter noted that other features of the former office building can lend themselves to great apartments, such as the 16-foot ceilings and the super-sized windows.

“You’ll have apartments with a tremendous amount of natural light,” he said.

There’s also the 1,000-square-foot library. Formerly used as reference room for the Reader’s Digest staff, the octagon-shaped room has striking wood paneling and book shelves that stretch to the ceiling.

“Our first thought was, what a freaking apartment this could be,” Balter said. “But then we’d have to tear it apart.”

Instead the room will be kept for its original use. Balter plans to restock the shelves with books and magazines, perhaps even some old Reader’s Digest issues, he said. Comfortable couches and other seating will be added as well.

“We’re going out of our way to use the natural amenities that we inherited with this building,” Balter said.

Felix Charney, president of Summit Development in Southport and a partner in Summit/Greenfield, said it was Wilder Balter’s background building affordable housing that made the company a fit for the development.

“They have a fabulous reputation for

Housing developer William Balter in the library of the former Reader’s Digest headquarters at Chappaqua Crossing.

multifamily and affordable housing,” the developer said. “We felt that it is in our best interest to partner with someone rather than do them all on our own.”

Wilder Balter has a 99-year lease on the property. The 28 affordable housing units in Chappaqua Crossing will count toward a 2009 legal settlement between Westchester County and the federal government that requires the county to build 750 units of affordable housing in Westchester’s wealthiest, predominantly white communities.

Wilder Balter has built more than 2,000 affordable units throughout the tristate region, including 225 units that count toward the federal settlement. Balter said the company’s commitment to affordable housing stretches back 40 years to when his partner, Robert Wilder, started his career as a developer. The company also does both market-rate and luxury communities but has consistently built affordable housing units through the past four decades.

So when the county committed to adding the units in the settlement, Balter said he viewed it as an opportunity.

“I don’t think anyone has gotten close to doing as much for the settlement as we have done, so I think we’re a natural first call for people,” he said.

Balter said the company is often fighting perceptions about affordable housing with both local municipalities and their residents, such as a mistaken belief that they are all publicly owned or only built in high-rise buildings. Having a deep portfolio of completed projects helps in those instances.

“It’s almost always the first question: ‘What else have you done?’” Balter said.

He can point to more than a dozen different projects in Westchester and Putnam counties that included some percentage of FCBJ

affordable units. Recently completed developments include the 64-unit Bridleside Apartments in North Salem and 51 condos in Larchmont.

“People will see our developments and realize it’s not this big, scary thing they were afraid of,” Balter said.

For the Apartments at Chappaqua Crossing project, as with the rest of the Wilder Balter portfolio, Balter said the affordable units will be built the same as the market-rate units and blended with those apartments throughout the building.

“The only thing that makes it different is the financing,” Balter said. “There’s no difference in the units.”

Construction is expected to take about a year and a half. Westchester County, the New York State Housing Finance Agency, Citibank Community Capital and First Sterling all provided financing for the project.

Chappaqua Crossing’s owners broke ground on the retail portion of Chappaqua Crossing in March after an 11-year struggle to get the project approved. Whole Foods, Life Time Fitness and other retail tenants are expected to open by 2017.

Charney said Summit/Greenfield is still negotiating a purchase agreement with a developer for the townhome portion of the campus. Town of New castle officials must still approve a site plan for the residential development.

There is about 150,000 square feet of office space on the site still available for leasing. “We expect our leasing activities will pick up once the shopping center starts to come online,” Charney said.

“This property will be unique in Westchester County,” he added. “It has its own exit off the Saw Mill, a beautiful location, housing, restaurants, grocery stores and a first-class fitness facility and medical all on site.”

Chief among those is the South Norwalk Transit Oriented Development Redevelopment Plan, designed to redevelop underused properties for commercial and residential uses in and around the South Norwalk Metro-North Railroad station while beautifying area streets and sidewalks.

The plan has been a sore subject for many residents for years, based largely on fears that such improvements will price them out of the market. Timothy Sheehan, executive director of the Norwalk

Redevelopment Agency (NRA), was quick to point out that the agency and city government have been careful to listen to and address those concerns, with a final public hearing scheduled for Sept. 27.

Norwalk developer M.F. DiScala & Co. Inc. is involved with a plan to acquire city land along Bates Court — about a quarter-mile from the train station — to be turned into a housing development. Plans call for a four-story building with 40 units and about 52 parking spots at 1 Bates Court.

A public hearing on that project is scheduled for Oct. 4.

Another major project is Head of the Harbor, a planned two-phase development

by M.F. DiScala. Head of the Harbor South, consisting of 60 housing units in a pair of buildings on Smith Street and a plaza, is expected to be completed in spring 2017.

Head of the Harbor North — including a five-story, 80-unit apartment building on High Street and a two-story, 8,000-squarefoot retail space on Main Street — was proposed by the developer about three weeks ago.

Meanwhile, NRA recently sent out a request for proposals for a Freese Park Master Plan, including construction plans and bid specifications. The roughly one-half-acre park “has been somewhat neglected,” Sheehan said. “There is so little open space in the Wall Street area that we thought it was time to reconsider the space and the types of uses that we want to encourage in the park.”

One of the NRA’s biggest splashes is expected to come with the Washington Village Transformation Plan, which Serrano said involves replacing one of the oldest public housing units in Connecticut. » » NORWALK, page 40

rooms. The rooms are informally divided into specific areas for health care providers, the patient and visitors.

Visitors can stay in the patient’s room overnight, taking advantage of a sofa that can be converted into a twin bed at the push of a button. The sofa also features a pop-up table for computer or dining use; Longmore said the hospital will provide at least one guest tray of food per day per patient.

Especially striking is each room’s patient-engagement system, consisting of a large flat-screen monitor and a keyboard that is sterilized after each patient’s discharge. There, patients can access videos — created by The Get Well Network — about their disease and information about medi-

cations and treatments, and can send messages to nurses and housekeeping.

“This is all part of providing a patient-controlled environment, giving them autonomy over managing their condition,” Longmore said. Movies and TV shows can also be accessed via Netflix, and each room features wide views of the city.

“They’re nicer and bigger than the first apartment I had in the city,” Longmore laughed.

Curtains have been mostly eliminated, as they catch dust and promote infection; those that are used are antimicrobial and disposable. Copper nanoparticles have been embedded in doorknobs and other high-touch surfaces to further reduce the threat of contamination.

The layout of each room and floor has essentially been “cloned,” so that staff “can focus more on bringing care to the patient, not having to run around searching for

equipment,” Longmore said. Thus staff can find anything from a thermometer on up in the same place from floor to floor and room to room.

Each floor also offers a “peace room,” which Longmore likens to “the quiet car on a train.” In addition to being a space where visitors or patients can be alone with their thoughts and undistracted from conversations in the other public waiting rooms, each peace room includes a massage chair.

A new approach to emergency room services is also readily apparent. Emergency staff sees 25,000 patients per year in 29 treatment spaces; that is being expanded to 50 treatment spaces, with eight specifically designed for pediatric emergencies and four special rooms for patients with behavioral health problems. The latter, featuring soft furniture and special tamper-proof hardware on doors, are sufficiently separate from the other emergency rooms

to provide further privacy and security, Longmore said.

A nautical theme permeates the pediatric space, from a large fish tank to wall artwork to the cartoon marine creatures on the equipment cart exteriors. “It’s a little easier for them to see that than to wheel in a big tray covered with needles and other instruments,” Longmore said.

Staff input was key to the new facility’s design, in accordance with Planetree.

Smeriglio noted that he oversaw the construction of model patient, operating and other representative rooms in a nearby warehouse space — “Not just areas designated by tape on the floors, but actual rooms, though without running water.”

Relevant staff were then invited to tour those rooms and offer feedback. After changes were implemented — electrical outlets were too low for the constant bending over needed to plug in and unplug equipment, for example — the staff was brought back to review “to see if it made the grade. We had buses going back and forth constantly for about three months,” he said.

Work is still being done on the integrated care pavilion, which allows doctors and surgeons to see patients in an office setting; a bridge connects that building to the hospital for further convenience. Smeriglio said construction is expected to be completed by the beginning of December.

The entire hospital is symbolically linked by a “glyph,” which appears on most signage, stationery, business cards and the like. The glyph features a soft swoosh to denote “high-touch,” opposite a sharper-edged swoosh for “high-tech,” surrounding a central dot representing the patient.

Each floor’s nursing station is roughly patterned the same way, with each desk arrayed in an arc around a central area designated for staff consultations; a high wall around that area serves to further dampen sound. The actual building is also curved to reflect the glyph pattern.

LED lights are featured in many areas, allowing for adjustments in brightness and color in the operating rooms, where green light is especially effective in reducing shadows and is routinely used for such procedures as laparoscopic operations.

Stamford Hospital’s new exterior sign consists of seven-foot tall LED lights that are also adjustable; for breast cancer awareness month in October, for example, the sign will be pink.

As for what will become of the still standing old hospital, Longmore said that some office space will be retained; decisions on what to do with patient rooms and other now-vacated areas are expected to be determined soon.

A toast to the Valley’s craft beverage industry

I

’m often asked by casual observers of the craft beverage industry whether it has peaked. My answer is always an emphatic no. Craft beverage consumption is evolving in unique ways, with drinks being consumed in previously unheard of places such as movie theaters and laundromats. And the current demand outpaces the supply. This makes for a bright future for the craft beverage industry.

The question arises because of the remarkable growth in the industry. New York is home to more than 900 wineries, breweries, distilleries and cideries, which generate billions of dollars of economic impact. Of these, 139 are in the Mid-Hudson Valley: Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Rockland, Orange, Sullivan and Ulster. Just five years ago, there were only 57. In fact, 5,000 Hudson Valley-based food and beverage businesses employ more than 57,000 people, and the number is growing.

To those wondering about a slowdown, I’d say that a natural leveling of the number of businesses being licensed may occur. But

production and sales will continue to rise.

Millennials are passionate about their craft beer and they are driving growth.

Craft breweries are helped because they are hyperlocal and have built-in cheerleaders. Enthusiasts have a love for their local brewery that is akin to the love of a local sports team — some are diehard Yankees fans, some like the Mets.

Institutional support helps, too.

Tourism departments pitch in with fantastic marketing and advertising campaigns and economic development corporations like Hudson Valley Economic Develop Corp. (HVEDC) help with programs such as the upcoming 4th Annual Hudson Valley Beer, Wine, Spirits & Cider Summit. Under Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the state has invested heavily in the craft beverage industry, promoting Taste NY and offering incentives, lowering fees and loosening regulations.

HVEDC strongly supports craft beverages because we find they are increasingly interwoven with other industries and boosting economic growth. We’ve seen restaurants pair local brews with food in

their establishments and craft beverage entrepreneurs sell locally produced fresh food in their tasting rooms and pubs.

That’s just the tip. Hudson Valleyproduced craft beverages are now sold at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in Yonkers, a movie theater chain, and in laundromats in downtown New York City and in Brooklyn, and that trend will soon travel farther north into the Hudson Valley. Discussions are ongoing about combining more food and beverage tours and incorporating craft beverages into cultural events like museum visits and other fine arts venues.

The region’s ethnic groups are adding to the excitement by brewing and distilling their traditional drinks. Nahmias et Fils distillery in Yonkers is producing mahia, the Moroccan liquor, and KAS Distillery in Mahopac is making krupnikas, an alcoholic drink popular in Lithuania and Poland.

It’s clear that craft beverages are quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon.

Producers are choosing to locate in old buildings in downtown areas, drawing traffic and revitalizing neighborhoods. This can be seen at the Yonkers Brewing Co. and the Newburgh Brewing Co. and plans by Captain Lawrence Brewing Co. to open a new destination brewery in Peekskill.

As the marketplace matures, so does

HVEDC. Four years ago, it started the Hudson Valley Beer, Wine, Sprits & Cider Summit as an educational forum and networking opportunity for craft beverage entrepreneurs. With just weeks to go before the fourth summit on Oct. 4, more people have signed up than ever before.

This year, the keynote speaker is a 35-year veteran of the beverage distribution industry, who will discuss the changes coming to the industry. After all, craft beverages’ biggest backers are millennials who are used to ordering goods and services from their smartphones. What will this mean for the future?

HVEDC has also created the Bet on My Business Academy, a hybrid classroom and job-shadowing executive education program to match local entrepreneurs with major hospitality and industry leaders who impart their wisdom and experience to this new crop of business owners.

Typically, fledgling businesses find investors to fund the next level of growth.

At HVEDC, we are working to help existing businesses scale up and grow. So let’s all drink to their success.

The 99 percent of innovation

W

hen we think of innovation, we think of the venture-backed startups with high returns to investors or social ventures, which measure success by social value locally and globally. The rest — the 99 percent of innovation — is an enigma, but one that is being solved every day in environments throughout the state of Connecticut at facilities designed to foster innovation, creativity and collaboration for today’s new breed of entrepreneurs.

By way of example, since we opened Comradity in July 2014, more than 60 entrepreneurs, ranging from pilot stage startups to going concerns, now make their home every day at our place. And, equally interesting, corporations like GE, Philips, Beiersdorf, ConEd use our meeting rooms and services because of that “good vibes” environment.

Recognizing the importance and potential of entrepreneurism on Connecticut’s economy, U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy came to Comradity on Aug. 17th to hear from these innovators to determine how to maximize that potential. A cross-section of businesses was represented at the event: multigender and multicultural entrepreneurs, including venture-backed startups, retail consumer businesses — which add social value by trading with emerging economies around the world — and the 99 percent of innovation: boutique services and products with local, national, even global reach, whose revenues come from corporations and corporate “intrepreneurs” from GE and ConED. How that discussion translates into action remains to be seen, but the very fact that such an event took place is significant since it acknowledges awareness of its importance to our state’s economic growth.

On a related note, in a separate event one week later, Comradity was visited by more than 35 incoming Sacred Heart University freshmen entering the John F. Welch Business School. We invited each to introduce themselves with an image that represents the values they bring to business.

Many aspire to be entrepreneurs. Few talked about finding the shortest path or exit to making the most money, which many assume millennial business values to be. Even more encouraging, most are more interested in building a sustainable business with integrity.

Connecticut has the potential to be the place where these young people realize their

The pro-business climate in Yonkers is remarkable.

We’re thrilled to be part of the economic renaissance underway in Yonkers.

Patricia Simone PRESIDENT Simone Management Group Boyce Thompson Center Yonkers, NY

Simone Development is investing $35 million to transform the former Boyce Thompson Institute property in Yonkers into a modern 85,000 sq. ft. mixed-use complex of offices, medical space, restaurants and retail. Before even breaking ground, Simone leased 15,000 sq. ft. That’s a testament to the business-friendly environment in Yonkers.

Developer gets $1.1M in tax relief for Mamaroneck apartments

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

W

estchester County has authorized more than $1.1 million in tax relief for a company developing 100 rental units on distressed property in Mamaroneck.

The county Industrial Development Agency approved a deal with Sheldrake Station Development LLC on Sept. 8.

The principal owners are Jon L. Halpern, managing director of Halpern Real Estate Ventures in Manhattan, and Michael Rosen of Rosen Management Corp.

The IDA approved exemptions of $800,000 on sales and use taxes and $325,000 on the mortgage recording tax.

The agency agreed to take title and possession of the property at 270 Waverly Ave. and lease it back to the developer.

The $34 million project includes 101,000 square feet in four buildings: a 4-unit attached town house, two 4-story buildings and one 3-story building. Five apartments will be offered as affordable housing.

The project is on 2.8 acres near the town’s commercial center and Metro-North Railroad station. It is in a flood zone along the Sheldrake River.

The site elevation will be raised, according to the project application, and the company will work with the Army Corps of Engineers to widen the river.

The developer has agreed to pay the town $125,000 for surplus land, and the town will use the money to improve the Waverly Avenue bridge.

Part of the property had significant environmental problems from use as an auto wrecking business and junkyard for 50 years, according to a bankruptcy court document. The Blood Brothers auto wrecking business was seen as a potential source of contamination to the river and to the Long Island Sound.

The site has since been cleared.

AMEC Construction of Norwalk, Connecticut is the contractor. The work is expected to create 113 construction jobs.

Five full-time positions will be created when the buildings open.

A previous developer envisioned

condominiums, but Sheldrake Station Development decided that the rental market makes more sense now.

The apartment vacancy rate in Westchester is below 4 percent, and more than half of the apartments were developed before 1979.

“As older housing stock continues toward obsolescence,” the developer wrote in the IDA application, “there is a demonstrated demand for new housing stock.

New supply has been limited, particularly in Mamaroneck where Avalon Willow is the only large-scale multifamily development to be constructed in the last 20 years.”

Ofer Attia of New Rochelle tried to develop the same place 10 years ago. He got the site rezoned. His proposed project went through an extensive environmental review. A site plan was approved. Fees were paid to the city.

But in 2008, he was denied a building permit.

Attia claimed in court filings that a new mayor who had run on an anti-development platform had conspired with town officials to stop the project.

His company, Sheldrake Lofts LLC, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2010.

Attia filed adversarial proceedings against the town in bankruptcy court. In 2012, Mamaroneck agreed to a settlement, paying Attia $390,000 and recognizing the validity of the original site plan.

The $34 million project includes 101,000 square feet in four buildings: a 4-unit attached town house, two 4-story buildings and one 3-story building. Five apartments will be offered as affordable housing.

Attia had borrowed $12 million from Remediation Capital Funding and by 2012 he owed nearly $14 million. Bankruptcy Court authorized a real estate auction.

A joint venture of Halpern Real Estate Ventures and Rosen Management Corp. submitted the winning bid of $3.5 million and gained control of the site.

Sheldrake Station Development plans to begin construction in October and finish

by February 2018.

ORANGE COUNTY CHAMBER BACKS LEGOLAND PLAN THE ORANGE COUNTY CHAMBER OF Commerce board of directors this month voted to support a $500 million Legoland theme park that Merlin Entertainments PLC has proposed to build in the town of Goshen.

Chamber directors in their resolution said the project unveiled this summer by the developer “would offer the greatest economic benefit to our entire region, bringing millions of dollars in economic growth and hundreds of jobs.”

Officials at Merlin Entertainments, a British-based, American-owned developer and operator of entertainment centers worldwide, have estimated the Legoland New York project, slated for an undeveloped 523-acre site off Route 17, would create 800 construction jobs, 500 full-time jobs, 300 part-time jobs and 500 seasonal jobs. The 153-acre park would include a 250-room hotel to accommodate some of the 10,000 to 20,000 daily visitors the developer expects to attract to the Hudson Valley park in peak season.

Orange County chamber officials said the proposed site now generates a total of $91,000 in annual property taxes, while Legoland’s owner would pay $1.4 million annually in lieu of property taxes to municipalities when the park is open and $52 million over 30 years. Approximately $38 million of that total will go to the Goshen Central School District, according to chamber officials.

“This project will create unprecedented benefits for the town of Goshen, the Goshen Central School District and Orange County,” said Lynn Allen Cione, president of the Orange County Chamber of Commerce. “Legoland New York presents a unique opportunity that we will not see again.”

Plans by Merlin Entertainment to build its Legoland New York park in Haverstraw in Rockland County failed to receive the support of town officials about a year ago after residents voiced strong opposition.

The developer in 2014 was awarded a $3.1 million economic development grant from the state for its ill-fated Haverstraw project.

Norwalk— » » From page 32

Part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Choice Neighborhoods Program — which supports locally driven strategies to address struggling neighborhoods with distressed public or HUD-assisted housing through neighborhood transformation — the project by Boston-based developer Trinity Financial will demolish a public housing complex near Water Street and replace it with 136 public housing units, 67 workforce housing units and 670 market-rate units.

“That will make for much more of a mixed-income integration,” Serrano said. Groundbreaking is expected in October.

As for the SoNo Collection, most signs are pointing to actual site work beginning in late fall.

Serrano said that the NRA, the city and Chicago-based developer General Growth Properties worked together to navigate the twisty trail of meetings and approvals in about a year, an extraordinary pace for such a massive undertaking. “I remember we were meeting on weekends in the middle of snowstorms,” he said.

Foundation work at the mall site, off West Avenue and Interstate 95, will begin within a couple of months. “They have a two-year construction window,” Sheehan said, “and GGP has a timing issue as well.”

That issue for General Growth Properties, according to Serrano, is that “They only open (mall properties) two times a year, in April or October, so the SoNo Collection will probably be up and running in October 2018.”

The NRA executives said at least one developer is also exploring building a hotel on South Main Street close to the SoNo complex.

Not all of Norwalk’s development projects are proceeding smoothly, however. The mixed-use development project known as Wall Street Place at Isaacs and Wall Streets suddenly halted in August.

Developer POKO Partners, of Port Chester in Westchester County, began phase one of the $49.8 million project in 2015, but after the firm’s managing member Kenneth Olson was diagnosed with a chronic illness this summer and turned over his responsibilities to brother Rich Olson, work suddenly stopped. No official statement has been made by POKO and Norwalk government officials declined to comment.

customers.

3. Execution — learn from others’ mistakes and successes.

Here are the possible benefits of those to the 99 percent of innovation both inside and outside corporations: 1. Eliminate duplication.

2. Capitalize on Connecticut’s smaller scale to simplify the alignment of customers, entrepreneurs, corporations, and investors to reveal and execute the highest and best customer value for new ideas.

3. Reveal opportunities with multilateral impact for existing agencies and government policy to stimulate 99 percent of innovation and increase investment in the new resources created.

4. Feed more deal flow to venture and social venture funds.

That said, the opportunities to connect in Connecticut should be encouraged and we are committed to bringing the business and political worlds together to make that happen.

FED GRANT AIDS DISABLED JOB SEEKERS The Connecticut Department of Labor has been awarded a $2.5 million federal grant to enhance its ongoing work to promote employment opportunities for people with disabilities.

The grant, awarded by the U.S. Department of Labor, enables the state agency to build upon its Disability Employment Initiative, which includes providing disability resource coordinators in American Job Centers to assist job seekers and employers, upgrading technology to help those with disabilities gain employment and offering Diverse Ability career fairs to connect employers and job seekers.

The grant will also be used to build upon community partnerships and collaborations between agencies and organizations that can help foster employment for those with a disability, to leverage resources for job training, opportunities and supportive services and to customize employment strategies to help job seekers with significant disabilities.

“Our state has tools available to help ensure employers and job seekers have the resources and knowledge they need to make the right connections,” said Gov. Dannel Malloy. “This grant will help us enhance those efforts.”

We all have something to teach.

The purpose of having years of wisdom is being able to impart it. Like the lesson of staying fit. Life, at times, can get tough. It takes good health to enjoy it. That’s what I tell my great-grandson when he comes to see me at The Bristal. We invent fitness games here in the gym. We go for long walks and talk. He chases my shots on the putting green. Maybe he’d rather play video games, I know, but something’s sinking in. You should see us doing tai chi.

GOOD THINGS HAPPENING THE BUILDING & REALTY INSTITUTE TO HOST VENDOR SHOWCASE

ULSTER SAVINGS AWARDS GRANTS

◀◀ BRI staff members Margie Telesco, Maggie Collins and Jane Gill.

The Building & Realty Institute (BRI) of Westchester and the Mid-Hudson Valley is celebrating its 70th anniversary by hosting its first vendor showcase Oct. 13 from 6 to 10 p.m. at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in White Plains.

The institute is one of the largest independent construction and realty industry trade associations in New York state. Founded in 1946, the organization now has more than 1,500 members.

Membership is wide-ranging, from builders, developers, remodelers as well as suppliers, specialty subcontractors and professional management and service firms catering to the residential and commercial sectors.

By marking its 70th year and hosting the vendor showcase, “is just the perfect thing to

do,” said Margaret Collins, director of membership for the institute. “In addition to showcasing the wealth and variety of our member firms, it’s a way of introducing the BRI, it’s vitality and dynamism as a business association, to a wider public audience.”

In addition to exhibits, the showcase will include presentations and workshops presented by industry leaders such as Power Performance Industries, Capital Nanotechnology, New Crystal Restoration, Peter F. Gaito of Peter F. Gaito & Associates Architects, and others.

General admission is complimentary, but registration is required to attend. For more information and to RSVP, contact Margaret Collins at Maggie@buildersinstitute.org or 914-273-0730.

Robert Baker, Ulster Savings Charitable Foundation member; Jeffrey Wood, executive director of the foundation; Bill C. Calderara, president and CEO of Ulster Savings Bank; Casandra Beam, CEO of the Ulster Literacy Association; and MaryRose Warcholak and Pete Shults, both foundation board members.

The Ulster Savings Charitable Foundation recently awarded grants to two nonprofit organizations doing community work.

Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson received $5,850 for the purpose of offsetting the cost of books for students participating in its Clemente Course in the Humanities in Kingston. The program offers a yearlong college-level course to low-income Ulster County residents who have not been able to complete high school or begin or complete an undergraduate college degree

program. Upon successful completion of the course, students are awarded six free transferable college credits from Bard College.

The Ulster Literacy Association received $10,000 to support the expansion of its English for Parents program, which helps to develop English literacy skills of immigrant parents in Ulster County.

The association hopes to replicate its success throughout all school districts in Ulster, starting with the Saugerties and New Paltz districts.

the daughter of Michael O’Connor, an associate real estate broker affiliated with the Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage office in Yorktown Heights.

“The sales associates and employees of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage dedicate a lot of time and effort into organizing this golf tournament each year because Friends of Karen provides invaluable support and services to families and children who are dealing with cancer and other serious illnesses,” said Joseph

A. Valvano, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Connecticut and Westchester County.

“I am so grateful for the generosity that is demonstrated each year by our community. Through this outing, we have been able to make significant contributions to Friends of Karen, which relies on the community’s support to be able to continue to assist children who are undergoing treatment, as well as their families,” said O’Connor.

‘Bitterly Disappointing’ August Jobs Report

C

BIA economist Pete Gioia described the August employment report as

At 3%, New Hampshire has New England’s lowest jobless rate. Unemployment in Massachusetts fell to 3.9% in August—the

“bitterly disappointing,” saying it reinforced the urgent need to address Connecticut’s economic challenges.

lowest in 15 years—as that state added 5,900 jobs for the month.

Job growth for August was essentially flat,

Connecticut has recovered just 81% of the 119,100 jobs lost during the 2008-2010

with just 300 new positions. However, it was the revisions to the July jobs report that were

recession, the slowest recovery rate in the region.

particularly troubling.

In releasing the August employment numbers,

Massachusetts leads all New England states, with an astounding 270% recovery rate,

the state’s Department of Labor revised its earlier July estimates—a gain of 1,700 jobs—

according to DataCore Partners. The national average is 170%.

down significantly, reporting a loss of 800 positions for that month.

“This report is bitterly disappointing,” said Gioia. “On balance, this is a report we wish we didn’t get.

Private sector employment fell by 1,500 jobs in August, while the public sector added 1,800 positions for the month.

“On one hand, we get tremendous news like Pratt & Whitney’s announcement that they’ll be adding up to 8,000 new jobs in Connecticut over the next decade.

Year-over-year, Connecticut employers have now added 18,600 jobs, or just 1.1% growth.

“Yet just as we’re celebrating that, these numbers show that the state economy’s foundation needs to be fortified.”

The unemployment rate fell one-tenth of a point to 5.6% in August, tied with Rhode Island for the highest in New England and three-tenths of a point higher than this time last year.

“This points to an underlying funk in the job market here in Connecticut,” Gioia said.

“Connecticut can reach a much greater potential by reforming our fiscal policies to encourage more job creating investment.

“And, in light of reports like this, the state elections coming up in November are more important than ever.”

Webster CEO: State Must ‘Control Its Destiny’

D

eveloping enforceable, effective government spending controls should be the top priority for the state’s Spending Cap Commission according to Webster Bank chairman and CEO Jim Smith.

Appearing before the commission’s September 7 hearing, Smith said the state must adopt “a control our destiny” approach to resolving Connecticut’s long-term fiscal problems and driving economic growth.

“I am deeply concerned for the state’s fiscal condition, which I think we can agree is deteriorating,” Smith told the commission.

“You have it within your power to change the course of events by defining the spending cap, and especially the exemptions, in a way that sustainably controls total state spending, lowers the state’s cost of doing business, and improves public sector productivity.”

Approved by 82% of Connecticut voters in 1992, the

spending cap was meant as an offset to the widely unpopular state income tax the legislature approved the previous year.

While there have always been some budgetary exceptions from the cap, such as debt payments, exemptions have steadily grown through generous cap interpretations.

Current spending cap exemptions now amount to almost 30% of state expenditures.

Smith told commission members the most important issue they face was deciding what state expenditures should be included in the cap, noting that the recurring use of exemptions was “like trying to eat our cake and have it, too.”

He highlighted recent legislative action, taken by a simple majority of state lawmakers, that moved $1.9 billion in payments toward unfunded pension liabilities outside the cap, freeing up approximately $100 million in additional spending this year.

“Such maneuvers violate the will of voters and only serve to make our finances more precarious,” he said. “Unchecked, these maneuvers will surely produce a catastrophic result and would be the ruin of Connecticut.”

Smith noted that if the spending cap was faithfully observed since 1992, cumulative state spending would have been reduced by as much as $5.5 billion, mitigating the need for constant tax hikes.

“Despite the two largest tax increases in state history in recent years, our state nonetheless remains mired in an endless cycle of budget crises with no end in sight,” he said.

“The commission’s recommendations will be closely watched to determine the level of discipline it seeks to impose on future spending, and taxes.

“You can be sure that businesses will make investment and location choices accordingly.”
